Hello to my fellow Americans, hope you are making the most of your long weekend. I finished my BG3 playthrough as “The Dark Urge”. I think the Urge origin character is a very fun playthrough, and enhances the story a bit because now your character is intertwined with the main villians, rather than just some guy who happened to also be on the Nautaloid. I also used this playthrough to experiment with different playstyles, and I gotta say, having 2 paladins in your party is OP. Hope everyone is having a safe weekend

    Kinda baffling to me that they’ve left the encounter in its current state

    For what it’s worth, the game assumes you’re going to use spirit summons. It’s kind of annoying because the boss AI hasn’t really been updated since DS1 so the game doesn’t really respond to them well, but it is what it is.

    I saw some pretty compelling evidence that she was originally a Sekiro boss

    Unless you saw something new, IIRC there was no real proof of this. There was a lot of speculation that Malenia was based on an unused Tomoe fight, but there are no signs anywhere in Sekiro’s files of such a boss. Zullie the Witch put out a video a whlie ago pointing out that Malenia’s animations would probably be close to Genichiro’s as he uses Tomoe’s style, but they’re very different.
